Description
This workshop is an introduction to modeling the performance of process fired heaters using Xfh Ultra. Starting with a brief review of fundamental concepts, attendees will then use an API 560 Specification Sheet of a proposed fired heater design to develop a complete fired heater model in Xfh Ultra and rate the heater’s performance.
Key Topics
- Process fired heater fundamentals
- Xfh Ultra capabilities and applications
- Heuristic approach to model development in Xfh Ultra
- Fluid definitions, process specification, and geometry inputs
- Practical guidelines for interpreting Xfh Ultra output reports and measures of performance
Suggested Participants
Engineers with or without prior knowledge of fired heater design, who rate the performance of process fired heaters
Course Fee: US$450

Description
This workshop is devoted to the shell-and-tube exchanger geometries handled only by Xist. The day focuses on the extensive options available in Xist and how you can use these methods effectively to solve several example problems. You will leave the class knowing how to take full advantage of the features this robust tool offers.
Key Topics
- Overview of Xist capabilities and applications
- Geometry input for shell-and-tube heat exchangers
- Process specifications for rating, simulation, and design
- Guidelines for specifying fluid properties
- Introduction to vibration analysis
Suggested Participants
Designers of shell-and-tube heat exchangers and process engineers who evaluate their performance
